    is is apparently some type of IQ test in Japan that is given to new employees.

    The idea is simple: everybody must cross the river.

    The rules:

    -Only one or two people may cross on the raft at a time
    -Only the Mom, Dad, and Policeman can operate the raft.
    -Dad can not be in the presence of the girls w/out Mom being present
    -Mom can not be in the presence of the boys w/out Dad being present
    -The thief can not be alone with any of the family members

    To start the game, click on the blue dot
    To put people on the raft, click on the them
    To move the raft, click on the red dots

    Is it supposed to say how long it has taken you? I think my attempt was probably between 6 and 10 minutes.

    It took me some minutes. I didn't look.

    These things are nonsense in regards to I.Q. The trick to this one is

    <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td valign="middle" align="left"><font size="1">Spoiler (Highlight to Read):</font>
    </td></tr><tr><td bgcolor="#ffffff" valign="middle" align="left"><font color="#ffffff" size="1">
    Realising that you can leave the criminal on his/her own.
    </td></tr></table>

    I had that kind of test in primary school.
    Some author (of who i forgot the name of ) presented that question towards us. It took the GROUP of us (30 6 year olds) around 3-10 mins to work it out, as far as i recalled...

    If you like riddles here&#39;s a tough one :

    You have 10 bags with coins (each containing more than 100 coins ) and a pair of scales (one that doesn&#39;t compare weight&#39;s ,it just counts it).
    9 of the bags contain real coins each weighing 10 grams and one contains false each weighing 9 grams .How can you find out which bag contains the false coins by using the scales just one time.

    If someone has heard it before let the others give it a shot first.

    Oh ...sorry if the translation from greek isn&#39;t very good .
